The Hoya ‘Swiffer’s Treat’ is sure to be a standout in any houseplant collection due to its lovely margins and the peachy hue that emerges when exposed to direct sunlight.
Bred by renowned Hoya collector and hybridizer Surisa Somedee in Thailand, this intricate hybrid derives from a crossing of Hoya SS 09-63 (Mindorensis orange x Blashernaezii subsp. Valmayoriana) and Clemensiorum.
She named it after Ric Moreira's iconic cat, Swiffer, from the Hoya empire.
